Letters Patent No. 95,454, dated October 5, 1869.

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part 0f the same.

' To all whom tt may concern:

I, CHARLES FoRsoHNER, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented certainfImprovements in Sausage-Machines, of which the following is a specification.

' My invention relates to the arrangement and combination of the gearing with` the cylinder, in such a manner that the said gearing and piston or plunger' shall be capable obeing readily removed on one side, so as to allow the cylinderbeing easily 4cleaned and filled again.

Figure I isan elevation, with the cylinder in section, of a machine embodying my invention.

Figure Il is a plan of the same, showing the piston and gearing moved on one side.

Figure III is au elevation of part of the machine, showing that side of the machine which is at the right hand in Fig. I.

Similar letters represent similar parts.

A is the cylinder, secured to a suitable sole-plate, B, and provided witha nozzle, C, to which the skin of the sausage to be iilled is attached.

To this cylinder A, a frame, D, is attached, on which the gearing to'perate the piston or plunger E is fastened.

This frame D is provided with a bolt, a, on one side, turning in suitable lugs n n', att-ached to the cylinder A, and capable of turning around said bolt.

The other side of said frame D is made to it around the projection en., fast to the side of the cylinder A,

` and is provided with a spring-catch, w,'wl1ich locks and secures the frame securely to said projection fm.74 The gearing. consists of a pinion, b, operating the rack d, attached to the piston E, which is guided in the frame D and cross-piece D', the wheel G, and pinion J, which latter is operated through the handle N.

When the piston is to be worked upward, the hanf die N may be attached to the end of the shaft O, car-.

the frame D, with all the gearing and piston, turned I around the centre of the bolt a until clear of the opening of said cylinder A, as represented in Fig. II, wherebythe operation of cleaning and filling the cylinder A is facilitated.

Vhen the cylinder A is filled, the frame D is turned around again and rrnlylocked to the projection m, by

means ot' its catch w, and the meat forced out of the cylinder through the nozzle O, by means of the action of the pistou E,.operated by its gearing.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

vThe arrangement and combination of the frame D withthe cylinder A, by means of its bolt a and catch w, in combination withvthe projection m, on the cylinder, substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore set forth.

CHARLES FORSGHNER.
